Hey all im looking @ buying a stock 09 fg xr6 t with 60k km auto good nick and "country km's" for $28k ish colour Red,

I would like:

-a new exhaust to sound like a real car

-some simple mods to add some more power but not going crazy

-mods to make turbo sound better and beefy'er with out making it sound illegal

-also want some new rims.

1.is that a fair price for the car? would you buy one with that amount of km's?

2.what mods can you suggest for me to have done to acheive what I am looking for? (cold air intake? filter? etc...)

3.can you post any pics of FG's with custom rims that you think look awesome? or know where I can go to view pic of FG's with custom rims?

4.do you have any other sujestions that would make the car look good or go better with out going crazy? ie windown tinting, spoiler...

5.where in Adelaide can you suggest for me to get the work done that have experiance with fg xr6 t's

budget is about $5k would like to spend less if pobbible and would love it to be Legal and not defectable.

Would really love some Help trying to decide how much I want to spend on a fg xr6 t and how much ill have to spend on mod's, ive always been a ford fan I also have a 1971 ford capri 3000 gt modded with a blown 302 stroked to 347 so im a big fan of FORD POWER =D

Welcome to the forum mate.

Is that 5k budget for looks and power?

For more noise/spool sound, replace the cone leading into the turbo with an alloy pipe. You can make one yourself or buy one from RapidSystems or Plazmaman. An XR8 Airbox is also a cheap mod for more noise and slight power gains. To make proper gains you will need a tune as well as a few minor mods like injectors, cat etc.

For looks if it was me I'd loose the rear spoiler and tint the windows as dark as you can, worry about rims later on.

Good luck with it, they're great fun.

ok so heinrich for turning but does he do modifications? exhaust n cold air intake etc?

I think I can live with the rims for a while and Yes I wanted to spend $5k in total.

kpm hav a website with prices n they have an advert so I guess they are doing well http://www.kpmauto.com/tabid/340/Default.aspx if I went a stage 1 I could then afford rims in my budget...
